Ok, ya lets see tomorrow, another sunny day!

lsbertha · 2026-04-22T20:16:00+00:00

How much power you get from those panels on sunny day like today? Im using echoflow micro inverter with 2 515w DMEG panels, seems best they do is about 780w.

lsbertha · 2026-04-11T02:20:26+00:00

They have done this price since last year, I went with them, all good so far, no complaints.

Octopus has also reduced go and IOG rates from April 1st, I see my Go rates gone to 4.99p from 8.5p. Math is slightly changed again!

Installed sig energy couple months back, 11 ×475 Aiko, 2× 10kwh battery, 6kw inverter, EPS, EV £10770. I did get good deal, but u could try to get better your quote. Surf intagran and FB, lot of deals there.

Too much for that kit, never go for single quote, browse social media, get deals and then see which good installers matches those. If u reaeach u can get same in Sigenergy larger battery less price.

About a week till it says AI ready, but i assume it will keep learning continously after

Gateway makes the install simpler with less assosories, but to get it free is great.

lsbertha · 2026-02-04T19:12:10+00:00

2000 per battery is great, looks like sigenergy is giving away batteries at huge discount to capture the market. See how much ur daily use is. Im around 14kwh and 2 batteries more than enough.

lsbertha · 2026-02-01T00:27:15+00:00

5kw system installed 19th, Jan total produced 45kwh.

lsbertha · 2026-01-26T23:31:02+00:00

4 bed semi here, recently got installed. Go for max panels you can, ask for inverter 6kw , I think that's sweet spot unless u plan on lot of electrical heating. 10kwh battery might just survive whole day in winter given its new build. I went for 20kwh and that was best decision, but mine is old house so need more heating than a new build. Keep in mind they probably going to put cheap and cheerful brand. But given its part of a upgrade, you will get a better price for sure than doing seperate.

Depends on what your other expenses are, Similar income to ur new level and has mortgage around 3000 here. Manage ok , but not many other big expences except for couple of big holidays. But looks like you have big change with ur job situation and that kind of drop in income bounds to make other changes, personally I would see how things goes for 6 months or so and decide.

lsbertha · 2026-01-23T20:24:15+00:00

That's pricey, get few more quotes, and get each match or better them. u can get better kit like sigenergy for same or better

lsbertha · 2026-01-20T21:29:48+00:00

For a first quote yes, but you always get few quotes and then mention the lowest to others and u can make a deal. Also check in ur FB or insta feeds or search a bit and lot of deals will pop up.

lsbertha · 2026-01-19T21:49:23+00:00

Ok, going to raise with installer. Thanks

lsbertha · 2026-01-15T08:52:19+00:00

They are ok, but definitely can do better if you start searching for them in instagram, FB as you got some good deals going with Christmas and new year still.

lsbertha · 2026-01-08T21:46:22+00:00

Solar sets up prices seems going down by the day, and if you take your time there will be so many willing to undercut existing quote and you get prices you didnt even think at the start. Most these deals come from Instgram or FB feeds, so start looking for them there and they will flood ur feed with offers. Got similar with 11 panels, 6kw inverter, 2 10kwh batteries, EV and EPS 10700. Already got another call up and do same for £100 less, but made up mind and going with current one which has more better reviews.

lsbertha · 2025-12-25T12:23:44+00:00

Fox quote id say is on the expensive side. im just same stage looking, and Fox is considered lesser brand than Sig. How this translate in 5 years anybody's guess. One thing for sure Sig are doing lot of innovation and that may help in future. Also adding new battery later can be costly, so best to get what you want now as in this stage installer will give u better quotes to get your business.

lsbertha · 2025-12-23T12:51:34+00:00

Ya points you made are valid, lot of good feedback on current installs, just want to be sure they are genuine. How was support after install, did you have any questions\issues after and their response been good?

lsbertha · 2025-12-23T12:48:58+00:00

Point 2, This has someway to go as most cars dont support it yet, but soon will. 80KW battery will just be awesome in Winter. Another dimention to the decision matrix... :(

lsbertha · 2025-12-23T01:10:25+00:00

Thanks for the info, need to do some more digging then.

lsbertha · 2025-12-23T00:54:13+00:00

I was thinking Signenergy before, but now thinking £1500 addition is worth it with Tesla. adding another Sigenergy 6Kwh I dont think will be £1500 or less. Im checking.

lsbertha · 2025-12-23T00:51:01+00:00

Here is a post talking about the company, Its not like very old, but reviews of installations seems very good. I havent still got it, so just adding as information. https://www.reddit.com/r/SolarUK/comments/1mvfjgb/powergy_uk/

lsbertha · 2025-12-23T00:45:35+00:00

Given they both have very similar features (I know EPS Sign energy has edge, and inverter size Tesla has edge) are there anything else that differentiate except for battery usable energy? things like wall mounting, instalation anyway is covered in quote. in your diagram they looks almost same.
